Jurgen Klopp should follow Manchester United and sign a player in a similar kind of mould as Bruno Fernandes.

That’s the verdict of Liverpool legend Jan Molby, a former midfield maestro himself who believes that the Reds engine room could do with a new spark.

Although Liverpool are on the verge of their first League Championship since Molby’s playing days of 1990, enjoying a record 25-point lead at the Premier League summit, old foes Manchester United pulled off the biggest transfer of the January window with their £47million capture of Fernandes from Sporting CP.

With nine games remaining of this season, fifth-placed United remain some 37 points adrift of the Reds but their Portuguese playmaker has added an extra dimension to their play.

The Daily Star quote Molby as saying: “It might hurt me to say this a little bit, but if you look at the impact Bruno Fernandes has had at Manchester United, now I would love Liverpool to sign that type of a midfield player.

"[I want] a midfield player that brings something different to what [James] Milner or [Naby] Keita or [Georginio] Wijnaldum or [Jordan] Henderson brings.”

Molby believes that Bayer Leverkusen’s Kai Havertz, a player linked with a potential move to Liverpool for several months, could fit the bill.

He added: “I would dearly love us to get one like that.

"Who would that be? We could go back to Germany, they play Monday night, Leverkusen, the young boy Kai Havertz looks a really, really good player.
